The 58th episode in a very long series about the American presidential elections from 1788 to the present. In the amazingly epic election of 2016, America gets Trumped as populism rules and the establishment drools.
Feeling dorky?
http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php?year=2016&f=0&off=0&elect=0
The 58th Presidential election in American history took place on November 8, 2016. The biggest thing Barack Obama could take credit for was a rebounding economy. Just before election day, unemployment was under 5%. Sure, plenty of Americans were underemployed, and wealth inequality kept getting worse and worse, and Obamacare was not stopping higher and higher healthcare costs, but at least there was some stability in financial markets and the economy was growing.
Meanwhile, a new Islamic fundamentalist terrorist group called ISIS, or ISIL, armed with American weapons, took over parts of Iraq and Syria. In fact, the world seemed to be a scarier place as more and more terrorists attacked civilians all over the place. Back at home, institutional racism raged on, as it had throughout the entire history of the United States, but now people began fighting back. A entire movement, called Black Lives Matter rose up to protest against police brutality that seemed to disproportionately affect African Americans.
2016 wasn’t as violent as 1968 or 1919, but it sure seemed that way by watching the news. In fact, people were afraid of things that weren’t even there.
Perhaps this explains the rise of Donald Trump. Trump had been a celebrity for decades as a very wealthy businessman and reality TV star. He had always flirted with the idea of running for President, but no one had taken him seriously, even when he actually finally announced he was officially running, on June 16, 2015. Few people in the media still didn’t take him seriously. He even got criticized for having paid actors to attend to cheer him on at the announcement. But his vague language about making America great again, sounding like a mix between Pat Buchanan and Huey Long and George Wallace, really resonated with a lot of Americans.
But first, he had to defeat A LOT of other Republicans wanting the nomination. I will just mention five others, as that’s all I have the energy for. There was Jeb Bush, the brother of former President George W. Bush and son of former President George H.W.Bush, and former Governor of Florida. I mean, when both your daddy and your bro were President, you probably should run, right? There was Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon originally from Michigan. Marco Rubio, a Senator from Florida, Ted Cruz, a Senator from Texas, and John Kasich, the Governor of Ohio.
Just like in 2012, there seemed to be a lot of division within the Republican Party. However, most of the other candidates were soon able to unite against a common enemy: Donald Trump, who, believe it or not, soon became the frontrunner. Because of the Trump effect, candidates often made vicious attacks, and Trump said things never before imagined on the campaign trail. Trump made the debates more exciting to watch with his colorful and sometimes shocking language. The more offensive he seemed to be, the more people seemed to love him. The establishment didn’t know what to do.
One by one, the other Republicans went down. Ted Cruz put up the best fight of all. Like Trump, Cruz was also considered an outsider, but Trump was successful at making Cruz seem untrustworthy. He branded him “Lyin’ Ted.” Yep, despite the naysayers and the Never Trump coalition, this guy won the nomination. Trump chose Mike Pence, the Governor of Indiana, as his running mate.
The Democratic Party also had division this election. Seemingly before the dawn of time, Hillary Clinton, the now former Secretary of State, was destined to be elected President in 2016. So when she struggled to even get the Democratic nomination, everyone knew this election was different. Bernie Sanders, the Independent Senator from Vermont, put up quite the fight against Clinton. Sanders joined the Democratic Party because he knew from personal experience that running as a third party candidate was so difficult. He was never one who could be easily classified, but one thing was for sure- he leaned further to the left than Clinton. He tried to make “socialism” not such a dirty word anymore.
After Sanders first announced his campaign, the media also didn’t take him to seriously. After all, Hillary Clinton was heavily favored. But his grassroots support quickly grew, especially as he stood in stark contrast to Clinton by not taking donations from corporations, the financial industry, or Super PACs. Sanders and Clinton were neck and neck, going back and forth in early primaries and caucuses. In the end, though, it was Clinton.

United States presidential election

The election of the President and Vice President of the United States is an indirect vote in which citizens cast ballots for a slate of members of the U.S. Electoral College. These electors cast direct votes for the President and Vice President. If both votes result in an absolute majority, the election is over. If a majority of electors do not vote for President, the House of Representatives chooses the President; if a majority of electors do not vote for Vice President, the Senate votes. Presidential elections occur quadrennially on Election Day, which since 1845 has been the Tuesday after the first Monday in November, coinciding with the general elections of various other federal, state, and local races. The 2016 U.S. presidential election is scheduled for November 8.

Israel

The President of Israel is elected by the Knesset to a single seven-year term, though the role of the President is largely ceremonial as the real power of the country is in the hands of the Prime Minister.

Ireland

Mexico

The President of Mexico is elected for a six-year term by the public. The first presidential election in Mexico was in 1934, although these weren't considered to have met international standards until 1994.

Article II of the U.S. Constitution vests the executive power of the United States in the president. The power includes execution of federal law, alongside the responsibility of appointing federal executive, diplomatic, regulatory and judicial officers, and concluding treaties with foreign powers with the advice and consent of the Senate. The president is further empowered to grant federal pardons and reprieves, and to convene and adjourn either or both houses of Congress under extraordinary circumstances. The president is largely responsible for dictating the legislative agenda of the party to which the president is enrolled. The president also directs the foreign and domestic policy of the United States. Since the founding of the United States, the power of the president and the federal government has grown substantially.

National electoral calendar 2016

This national electoral calendar for the year 2016 lists the national/federal direct elections to be held in 2016 in all sovereign states and their dependent territories. By-elections are excluded, though national referendums are included. Specific dates are given where they are known.

History

ABC began news broadcasts early in its independent existence as a radio network after the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) ordered NBC to spin off the former NBC Blue Network into an independent company in 1943. The split (which NBC conducted voluntarily in the event that its appeal to have the ruling overturned was denied) was enforced to expand competition in radio broadcasting in the United States as the industry had only a few companies such as NBC and CBS that dominated the radio market, and in particular, was intended to prevent the limited competition from dominating news and political broadcasting and projecting narrow points-of-view. Television broadcasting was suspended however, during World War II.

Every four years the United States of America hold the presidential election. It is a long process until it is finally clear who will be the new president. In theUS, Democrats and Republicans are the two big competing parties. As a first step, the Democrats and Republicans chose their candidates in the primaries, who then compete against each other during the election campaign. In this clip we give you a detailed explanation of every step in the presidential election.

So when she struggled to even get the Democratic nomination, everyone knew this election was different. Bernie Sanders, the Independent Senator from Vermont, put up quite the fight against Clinton. Sanders joined the Democratic Party because he knew from personal experience that running as a third party candidate was so difficult. He was never one who could be easily classified, but one thing was for sure- he leaned further to the left than Clinton. He tried to make “socialism” not such a dirty word anymore.
After Sanders first announced his campaign, the media also didn’t take him to seriously. After all, Hillary Clinton was heavily favored. But his grassroots support quickly grew, especially as he stood in stark contrast to Clinton by not taking donations from corporations, the financial industry, or Super PACs. Sanders and Clinton were neck and neck, going back and forth in early primaries and caucuses. In the end, though, it was Clinton.

The 58th episode in a very long series about the American presidential elections from 1788 to the present. In the amazingly epic election of 2016, America gets Trumped as populism rules and the establishment drools.
Feeling dorky?
http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php?year=2016&f=0&off=0&elect=0
The 58th Presidential election in American history took place on November 8, 2016. The biggest thing Barack Obama could take credit for was a rebounding economy. Just before election day, unemployment was under 5%. Sure, plenty of Americans were underemployed, and wealth inequality kept getting worse and worse, and Obamacare was not stopping higher and higher healthcare costs, but at least there was some stability in financial markets and the economy was growing.
Meanwhile, a new Islamic fundamentalist terrorist group called ISIS, or ISIL, armed with American weapons, took over parts of Iraq and Syria. In fact, the world seemed to be a scarier place as more and more terrorists attacked civilians all over the place. Back at home, institutional racism raged on, as it had throughout the entire history of the United States, but now people began fighting back. A entire movement, called Black Lives Matter rose up to protest against police brutality that seemed to disproportionately affect African Americans.
2016 wasn’t as violent as 1968 or 1919, but it sure seemed that way by watching the news. In fact, people were afraid of things that weren’t even there.
Perhaps this explains the rise of Donald Trump. Trump had been a celebrity for decades as a very wealthy businessman and reality TV star. He had always flirted with the idea of running for President, but no one had taken him seriously, even when he actually finally announced he was officially running, on June 16, 2015. Few people in the media still didn’t take him seriously. He even got criticized for having paid actors to attend to cheer him on at the announcement. But his vague language about making America great again, sounding like a mix between Pat Buchanan and Huey Long and George Wallace, really resonated with a lot of Americans.
But first, he had to defeat A LOT of other Republicans wanting the nomination. I will just mention five others, as that’s all I have the energy for. There was Jeb Bush, the brother of former President George W. Bush and son of former President George H.W.Bush, and former Governor of Florida. I mean, when both your daddy and your bro were President, you probably should run, right? There was Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon originally from Michigan. Marco Rubio, a Senator from Florida, Ted Cruz, a Senator from Texas, and John Kasich, the Governor of Ohio.
Just like in 2012, there seemed to be a lot of division within the Republican Party. However, most of the other candidates were soon able to unite against a common enemy: Donald Trump, who, believe it or not, soon became the frontrunner. Because of the Trump effect, candidates often made vicious attacks, and Trump said things never before imagined on the campaign trail. Trump made the debates more exciting to watch with his colorful and sometimes shocking language. The more offensive he seemed to be, the more people seemed to love him. The establishment didn’t know what to do.
One by one, the other Republicans went down. Ted Cruz put up the best fight of all. Like Trump, Cruz was also considered an outsider, but Trump was successful at making Cruz seem untrustworthy. He branded him “Lyin’ Ted.” Yep, despite the naysayers and the Never Trump coalition, this guy won the nomination. Trump chose Mike Pence, the Governor of Indiana, as his running mate.
The Democratic Party also had division this election. Seemingly before the dawn of time, Hillary Clinton, the now former Secretary of State, was destined to be elected President in 2016. So when she struggled to even get the Democratic nomination, everyone knew this election was different. Bernie Sanders, the Independent Senator from Vermont, put up quite the fight against Clinton. Sanders joined the Democratic Party because he knew from personal experience that running as a third party candidate was so difficult. He was never one who could be easily classified, but one thing was for sure- he leaned further to the left than Clinton. He tried to make “socialism” not such a dirty word anymore.
After Sanders first announced his campaign, the media also didn’t take him to seriously. After all, Hillary Clinton was heavily favored. But his grassroots support quickly grew, especially as he stood in stark contrast to Clinton by not taking donations from corporations, the financial industry, or Super PACs. Sanders and Clinton were neck and neck, going back and forth in early primaries and caucuses. In the end, though, it was Clinton.

http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php?year=2016&f=0&off=0&elect=0
The 58th Presidential election in American history took place on November 8, 2016. The biggest thing Barack Obama could take credit for was a rebounding economy. Just before election day, unemployment was under 5%. Sure, plenty of Americans were underemployed, and wealth inequality kept getting worse and worse, and Obamacare was not stopping higher and higher healthcare costs, but at least there was some stability in financial markets and the economy was growing.
Meanwhile, a new Islamic fundamentalist terrorist group called ISIS, or ISIL, armed with American weapons, took over parts of Iraq and Syria. In fact, the world seemed to be a scarier place as more and more terrorists attacked civilians all over the place. Back at home, institutional racism raged on, as it had throughout the entire history of the United States, but now people began fighting back. A entire movement, called Black Lives Matter rose up to protest against police brutality that seemed to disproportionately affect African Americans.
2016 wasn’t as violent as 1968 or 1919, but it sure seemed that way by watching the news. In fact, people were afraid of things that weren’t even there.

Sanders joined the Democratic Party because he knew from personal experience that running as a third party candidate was so difficult. He was never one who could be easily classified, but one thing was for sure- he leaned further to the left than Clinton. He tried to make “socialism” not such a dirty word anymore.
After Sanders first announced his campaign, the media also didn’t take him to seriously. After all, Hillary Clinton was heavily favored. But his grassroots support quickly grew, especially as he stood in stark contrast to Clinton by not taking donations from corporations, the financial industry, or Super PACs. Sanders and Clinton were neck and neck, going back and forth in early primaries and caucuses. In the end, though, it was Clinton.

Every four years the United States of America hold the presidential election. It is a long process until it is finally clear who will be the new president. In theUS, Democrats and Republicans are the two big competing parties. As a first step, the Democrats and Republicans chose their candidates in the primaries, who then compete against each other during the election campaign. In this clip we give you a detailed explanation of every step in the presidential election.

The 58th episode in a very long series about the American presidential elections from 1788 to the present. In the amazingly epic election of 2016, America gets Trumped as populism rules and the establishment drools.
Feeling dorky?
http://uselectionatlas.org/RESULTS/national.php?year=2016&f=0&off=0&elect=0
The 58th Presidential election in American history took place on November 8, 2016. The biggest thing Barack Obama could take credit for was a rebounding economy. Just before election day, unemployment was under 5%. Sure, plenty of Americans were underemployed, and wealth inequality kept getting worse and worse, and Obamacare was not stopping higher and higher healthcare costs, but at least there was some stability in financial markets and the economy was growing.
Meanwhile, a new Islamic fundamentalist terrorist group called ISIS, or ISIL, armed with American weapons, took over parts of Iraq and Syria. In fact, the world seemed to be a scarier place as more and more terrorists attacked civilians all over the place. Back at home, institutional racism raged on, as it had throughout the entire history of the United States, but now people began fighting back. A entire movement, called Black Lives Matter rose up to protest against police brutality that seemed to disproportionately affect African Americans.
2016 wasn’t as violent as 1968 or 1919, but it sure seemed that way by watching the news. In fact, people were afraid of things that weren’t even there.
Perhaps this explains the rise of Donald Trump. Trump had been a celebrity for decades as a very wealthy businessman and reality TV star. He had always flirted with the idea of running for President, but no one had taken him seriously, even when he actually finally announced he was officially running, on June 16, 2015. Few people in the media still didn’t take him seriously. He even got criticized for having paid actors to attend to cheer him on at the announcement. But his vague language about making America great again, sounding like a mix between Pat Buchanan and Huey Long and George Wallace, really resonated with a lot of Americans.
But first, he had to defeat A LOT of other Republicans wanting the nomination. I will just mention five others, as that’s all I have the energy for. There was Jeb Bush, the brother of former President George W. Bush and son of former President George H.W.Bush, and former Governor of Florida. I mean, when both your daddy and your bro were President, you probably should run, right? There was Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon originally from Michigan. Marco Rubio, a Senator from Florida, Ted Cruz, a Senator from Texas, and John Kasich, the Governor of Ohio.
Just like in 2012, there seemed to be a lot of division within the Republican Party. However, most of the other candidates were soon able to unite against a common enemy: Donald Trump, who, believe it or not, soon became the frontrunner. Because of the Trump effect, candidates often made vicious attacks, and Trump said things never before imagined on the campaign trail. Trump made the debates more exciting to watch with his colorful and sometimes shocking language. The more offensive he seemed to be, the more people seemed to love him. The establishment didn’t know what to do.
One by one, the other Republicans went down. Ted Cruz put up the best fight of all. Like Trump, Cruz was also considered an outsider, but Trump was successful at making Cruz seem untrustworthy. He branded him “Lyin’ Ted.” Yep, despite the naysayers and the Never Trump coalition, this guy won the nomination. Trump chose Mike Pence, the Governor of Indiana, as his running mate.
The Democratic Party also had division this election. Seemingly before the dawn of time, Hillary Clinton, the now former Secretary of State, was destined to be elected President in 2016. So when she struggled to even get the Democratic nomination, everyone knew this election was different. Bernie Sanders, the Independent Senator from Vermont, put up quite the fight against Clinton. Sanders joined the Democratic Party because he knew from personal experience that running as a third party candidate was so difficult. He was never one who could be easily classified, but one thing was for sure- he leaned further to the left than Clinton. He tried to make “socialism” not such a dirty word anymore.
